Wikis are great Web 2.0 tools for working together, collaborating and constructing new knowledge. For this activity on standards and to become familiar with using a wiki, we will each contribute to this chart about Standards and 21st Century Learning. As people add their thoughts and information you can see how wikis can be a powerful place for students in your class, in your school, in our district and globally to collaborate on projects.

For this activity, review the NETS-T National Technology Standards and the information from the Partnership for 21st Century Learning. Choose a technology standard at the objective level, align it with a 21st century skill and name a technology you have used or might want to try to help support the standard.

To EDIT the page click on the top right on the EDIT tab. You will see an editor pop up and now you will be able to type on the page. It is just like a regular WORD editor, you can bold, italic, color and make hyperlinks! DON'T BE SCARED, you will not ruin anything--we can always pull a back up page! Just click in a blank row and type your information! If all the rows have been used, click in the last row and then click on the table icon. Then, choose Row, Add Row, Add below to add another row for your entry. CLICK SAVE before leaving the page!!

Be sure to check back to see what others have added...printing out this page at the end of the activity provides a great resource for you to use!
